Wow, thanks for the details. I will let my contractor know and see what he can do with it. By the way, yesterday you officially moved into the house? How was the feeling?

I think it's a different model from what I saw in Expo. Good to hear that it is quiet. Since I have missed this chance, I will get an Electrolux washer in future. (Havn't started using my washer already start to think of next washer Haha!)

Pokey is such an adorable bear! Congrats on house purchase, may I know which area is this? The layout is unique.

Thanks Aya, deeply appreciate! Do you mean the ledge for the top is a dummy aircon trunk? There won't be water flowing through that trunking? We won't be asking the aircon guy to do, as there won't be any aircon work, we will just ask our contractor to do it. I like the warm light from the birdcage pendant light, nice mood!

Maybe you can get a coffee maker, toaster, juice blender, or vacuum cleaner there hehee.. Hi Bloom, it's E402BRE, but the white one is already out of stock. Are you getting the white one? They are giving us the version 2. We got it for $899. I also read some reviews about the noise issue, but I just love the compartments in the fridge so much, it is much much more solid than Japanese or Korean brand fridge. Most importantly, i am looking for a white fridge with bottom door-type freezer, and this is the only one that fits all my requirements. Oh.. Which model of Electrolux you using? Is it good?

I will feel bad if you purposely go to the house and take a shot, haha take your time no need rush.

Wah! High pitch .. can you hear it even from the bedroom? I think 7kg should be fine for us, as I have the habit of separating the dark colour and light colour clothes, so end up we need to wash clothes about 3 times a week. I just hope there is a washer that comes with two compartments so that we can wash dark and light colour clothes separately and at the same time!

Aya, you mentioned that your MBR air-con trunking below the window will be covered up with plaster board, I would like to see how it looks like after covering up as I'm going to do that for my air-con trunking too. Thanks ya!

No worries, still got time - until 6th May. I thought you have bought all your stuff, what other stuff still pending? I must admit I deliberately choose a white fridge to match with my white kitchen cabinet! But i know the white fridge will turn yellow in the long run, by that time my kitchen cabinet also turn yellow.. so should be okay haha!

Yah! The original was $1.2K now reduced to $699, it is a worth buy, but too bad we already paid for the Samsung Washer. The fridge was supposed to be $1199, now reduced to $899, we have been eying it for a long long time, now reduced so much so faster buy lor haha

Very nice!! The chairs match the table and the bench well, plus the spot light is giving the feel of a showroom hehehe, do you still want to paint the table? I think it looks okay that way.

The Harvey Norman Sale Three weeks ago, we went to Harvey Norman at Suntec City. The sales uncle told us not to buy anything first, as they will be having a tech expo soon and items will be sold at good price. After that we totally forgot about it as we were quite skeptical that HN can offer better prices than local electrical stores. Until recently, my mom in-law asked us about home appliances, then we remembered about what the uncle told us! Today finally we went down to expo and purchase our fridge and washer. Really a good deal! Managed to get the following Fisher & Paykel Bottom Freezer Refrigerator Samsung Front Load Washer After we purchased the Samsung Washer, We saw that an Electrolux washer going for $699. We started to regret. Oops.. Anyway, we managed to bargain for free delivery, Yay!

Finally the chairs have arrived! Can't wait for the assembled photos!

Hi BY, you have been using this SAMSUNG washer - WF8692, right? Any complaints about it? I'm thinking to get one.

I got that bowl since uni time until now. It is very durable! But the only downside is the bottom part is not thick enough. When we put hot stuff in the bowl, it is almost impossible to carry the bowl with your bare hands - too hot!! Durable, but design wise not user friendly.

I see my current rental flat layout in your photos. The flat I'm staying currently is also 4S. Hehe, good squarish layout, but i don't know where to put the dining table! Hope you have a smooth reno journey!

Hi ahlipz, Have you bought the fisher & paykel fridge? I heard about the noise issue regarding this fridge, not sure if you know about this? Some people say they experienced it but some say no. Confused!

I went to the fair too! Did you get it at a better price than local stores?

Wow, thanks for giving feedback on most of the brands! In my opinion, the Maxcoil mattress is not so good. We bought this bed 1 year ago and I don't really like it. As we are staying at a rental place, so at that time we were just thinking to buy a mattress temporary cos we were preparing for our wedding in September last year so just cincai buy 1 first. Got cheated by the furniture guy saying it is a Maxcoil brand but actually, it is just an OEM version. Anyway, maybe we will not purchase a new mattress for our new home but rather add a good mattress pad on top of it and use it for the time being until we find the one that suit us most.

Romantic chandelier, how much is it?

Hi romeltic, are you planning to use the left wall tile as feature wall for your MBR bathroom? It definitely has the resort feel! Looking forward to your resort-style bathroom! P.S: I didn't know there is ba kut teh around Hafary

omg! Your bed looks so comfy, feel like lying on it.. haha.. did you choose the firm one or soft mattress? It's so hard for us to choose mattress as i prefer softer mattress and hubby prefers the very firm one. I love how the shower curtain blocks the air pipe! Love the overall feel of your house. Look forward to more photos after the IKEA furniture arrives! So will you be taking leave tomorrow to rest? Looks like you have a tired weekend.

Haha, I know, but your place is one of the best in renotalk. Good example ma... hehe

Your windows are very tall! Good , i like houses with tall and big windows, bring in lots of light. But your place got west sun, hopefully your windows are tinted? Otherwise will be quite hot.

Folks, there is Harvey Norman Tech Expo Now! Venue: Singapore Expo Hall 5B Date: 28 Apr - 6 May http://singaporeexpo.com.sg/2012/03/22/harvey-norman-sale-2/ Can plan to get your washer, refrigerator or TV there.
